Today was a very productive and fun day! In the afternoon we enjoyed Ms. Clark’s wonderful story telling. As part of our prize for coming second in the Siemens "We Can Change the World" Challenge last year, Discovery Education hosted a school assembly. Dave Salmoni, large predator expert and host of Animal Planet came with some furry friends and tales of his adventures with animals.
